New for the 2008-2009 ski season, Marker's backcountry Baron Binding with 110-mm. ski brake gives expert skiers the same performance perimeters as a racing ski binding, but with backcountry-specific features. This new binding is based on Marker's bestselling Duke binding, but the Baron is 1/3 lighter than the Duke and features a release performance that's ideally suited for skiers who weigh less than 250 lbs.

The fear of pre-release (especially on double-diamond boilerplate) is usually why elite and expert backcountry skiers opt for a racing binding on their backcountry and all terrain skis.

One of the coolest features on the Baron binding is the BCT--Back Country Technology ski lever. If you slide the lever to the 5- or 10-degree positions, it acts as a hiking aid on inclines or traverses. The BCT also has a distinct mobility feature in BC (backcountry) mode that moves your weight on your ski back by as
